What is a design system?
Defining what a Design System is and what it means for an organization can be tricky. In this post, we'll take the conversation of Design Systems past style guides and component libraries and get into breaking down silos between development and design.

The six pieces of a design system
A design system is a set of tools, processes, guidelines and philosophies that combine to drive how a team designs a product. The purpose of a design system is to not only systematize product development, but to also establish the processes that teams use to design, develop, test and more. As a tool, it sets the foundation for your digital experiences and products to look and feel consistent to users, increase efficiency and quality for your teams, and protect your brand across all your touchpoints in the market.

A Developer's Guide to Design Systems
A design system is an amorphous thing. One definition I like, and there are several, is that it's an ecosystem of tools, guidelines, and shared values and principles that helps teams more efficiently ship consistent design. Similar to how different ecosystems emerge from the interactions of its communities, a design system varies from one business to the next, according to the needs and interactions of its teams. With that in mind, it's just not possible to define a specific set of artifacts that should make up every design system, nor should we try to.

What are the top 3 organizational impacts of a design system?
Does it seem like everyone is talking about design systems? Well, it's with good reason. These collections of reusable components are making a massive impact on the organizations leveraging them. While the big players like Airbnb, Uber, and IBM are well known for their innovative design systems, this tool is changing the way even mid-sized organizations deliver digital products.

Is your design system performing?
Nowadays, many companies have a design system, but the issues many organizations currently face include scaling it, getting the right funding, determining who owns the design system, and getting buy-in from internal product teams to use it.
